Dana Hart - Stone:" I am captivated by the narratives of people who settled the Western United States. As a child in Eastern Montana, I wandered the history-rich countryside looking for abandoned homesteads. At each site, I found fascinating evidence of difficult lives eked out on the Northern Plains. Today, this same curiosity motivates me as I mine for stories found in vintage, vernacular, photography and create paintings that make visible universal themes about unknown Americans. Friendship, community, pride, patriotism, and home are some of the themes that reveal the vast topography of our shared human experience." Sam Scott: I continue to be focused on the fundamentals: Creating an experience holding a new beauty which reveals a balance between the physical and the spiritual. That a transition might take place." - Sam Scott Scott is known internationally for his monumental abstract oil paintings collected in the US and Europe. Sam has lived and worked in Santa Fe since 1969. His work has been the focus of local exhibitions at the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum, New Mexico Museum of Art, Sam Scott: An American Voice, 1967-1997, and the Center for Contemporary Arts, Messages from the Wounded Healers.

Friday, October 3 Visions West Contemporary Opening reception, 6-8pm Beau Carey, Brightness Bound. Beau Carey is known for his immersive landscape paintings that reflect both physical encounters with remote environments and a deep questioning of how we perceive and represent space. In environments where traditional landscape conventions break down—where there’s no atmospheric perspective or stable point of reference, Carey challenges inherited ways of seeing. His compositions are built from memory and shaped by the concept of Notan, a design principle that balances dark and light. Beginning with cut-paper silhouettes drawn from remembered geographies, Carey distorts, mirrors, and reconfigures these fragments into patterns that reflect how we actually experience place: fractured by movement, time, distraction, and emotion. His paintings collapse multiple perspectives, horizons, and timelines into a single image. Forms appear as afterimages, shapes repeat and unravel, and spatial logic bends. The result is work that suggests continuity is an illusion—and that our perception of the world is far more dynamic and unstable than traditional landscape painting allows. Through November 29		Visions West Contemporary Beau Carey Fire Kasina Oil on canvas, 72 x 64 inches Through November 29

Long before the introduction or invention of the potter's wheel, women were the potters in all cultures allowing men to be the hunter/gatherers. While in modern day cultures both men and women are vessel makers, the importance of women in the pottery making tradition is highly influential in bringing a feminine aesthetic and reference to ceramics. Curated by acclaimed ceramic artists  Dara Hartman and Donna Polseno, Plinth Gallery has invited 14 nationally known ceramic makers for this 2-month exhibition. This show highlights the multifaceted and committed approaches to women working with ceramics. A wide variety of techniques including hand building, slip casting, and wheel-throwing will be featured in this timely exhibition. Through September 26

Continuing:

Walker Fine Art invites you to slow down, exhale, and step into a sanctuary of quiet reflection. In Unthethered, five artists, Theresa Clowes, George Kozmon, Sara Sanderson, Derrick Breidenthal, and Sabin Aell offer a gentle reprieve from the demands of modern life, presenting works inspired by wide-open landscapes, elemental textures, and organic rhythms. These pieces whisper of connection—not through noise or urgency, but through a quiet communion with the earth and with ourselves. Untethered offers the hush of spaciousness and solace, a chance to feel rooted, to breathe deeply, and to remember what it means to simply be.
